El Scruffio

El Scruffio (2024: 16/26)

As today is International Monkey Day, here's a recent drawing of mine that features one. This is the design for a T-shirt that I have made as a Christmas present for my daughter. It's based on our holiday to Mexico, and features many of the animals that were roaming the resort (particularly the coatis, which you may recognise from a few weeks ago).

And who is El Scruffio? This is the Mexican version of her favourite toy Scruffy, who we bought a little sombrero for when we were there.

She gets me to draw Scruffy a lot, but technically thats on dodgy grounds copyright-wise due who made the toy, but luckily El Scruffio is very much our invention, and hopefully the long moustache is enough of a disguise...
